Message From the Superintendent

August 22, 2023

The 2023-2024 school year is upon us!  We are looking forward to a great year filled with learning, friendship, and fun.  We are making plans to continue the remarkable academic progress our students make each year.  A few things to watch for:

• Our after-school programs will start in October, along with great clubs like Movie Making and Run Club.
• If you are interested in counseling services for your student, please call the office.  We have free high quality services available for our students.
• We are planning our school events for the year, including Back to School Night on September 21^st.

We look forward to seeing our returning families and students and some new faces.

Patricia Beathard
Principal/Superintendent

Thanks to our students, staff, parents, and community for helping to make the 2022-2023 school year a success.  Coming together as a school family helps us to be successful.

Some highlights of 2022 – 2023 include: 

¨ Lots of learning and impressive student academic progress

¨ Fun student clubs and activities, including Run Club, Movie Making Club, and After School 4H

¨ Outdoor education for all students at Camp Parsons funded with a competitive grant

Really big news!  After several years of waiting, our school district received notice that we were awarded a 2.9 million dollar Small Rural Schools Modernization grant that should pay for the following:  roof, asbestos removal, new flooring, and updated electrical system including a generator that will run our building during power outages.   Much thanks to staff and board members involved in this process.  The work will likely take place in the summer of 2024.
